Menlo Systems’ femtosecond fiber laser integrates the latest developments in fiber technology
and incorporates these enhancements into an easy-to-use product.
Our patented figure 9® technology delivers reliable and consistent mode-locking, which is ideally suited to ensure long-term stable operation in demanding environments. The YLMO with its
PM-fiber design guarantees excellent stability and consistent long-term performance.
The YLMO is engineered with life science and multi-photon applications in mind. The pulses
can be pre-chirped to attain their shortest width within their intended target sample.
The installation of the laser system is as easy as it gets, taking only a few minutes. For easeof operation, the laser is switched on by the push of a single button. The maintenance free
operation guarantees a worry-free device that enables our customers to focus their time andresources on their actual application.
